Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a method for manufacturing a high-density heat storage molded body having a porous structure stable in a heat storage and release cycle, more particularly, to a method for manufacturing a molded body that is stable in a heat storage and release cycle, which includes steps of: preparing ceramic powder; mixing ceramic fibers with the ceramic powder; pressing and molding a mixed powder; and manufacturing the manufactured molded body in the form of a porous molded body by high-temperature heat treatment.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . As a molded body that is stable in a heat storage and release cycle by adding ceramic fibers, a thermochemical heat storage molded body comprising:
 ceramic powder; and   ceramic fibers mixed with the ceramic powder.   
     
     
         2 . The thermochemical heat storage molded body of  claim 1 , wherein
 the ceramic powder mixed with ceramic fibers is subjected to pressure molding and high-temperature heat treatment to form a porous molded body shape.   
     
     
         3 . The thermochemical heat storage molded body of  claim 2 , wherein
 the ceramic fiber is at least one of an SiC fiber, an Al 2 O 3  fiber and a ZrO 2  fiber, and   the ceramic powder is at least one of a powder of a char state including an organic compound, a MgO powder, and a CaO powder.   
     
     
         4 . As a method for manufacturing a molded body that is stable in a heat storage and release cycle by adding ceramic fibers, a method for manufacturing a thermochemical heat storage molded body comprising steps of:
